Club career
Janderson was born in São João de Meriti, Rio de Janeiro, but played for Inhumas as a youth. Back to his native state, he made his senior debut with Angra dos Reis and played for Duque de Caxias before joining São José-MA for the 2022 season.[1]
After scoring six goals in the 2022 Campeonato Maranhense, Janderson moved to Série D side Bahia de Feira in April of that year, and was the club's top scorer in the competition with seven goals. On 8 August 2022, he signed for Botafogo and was initially assigned to the under-23 team.[2]
Promoted to the first team for the 2023 season, Janderson renewed his contract with Bota until 2025 on 10 April 2023,[3] and made his debut with the main squad ten days later, coming on as a second-half substitute for Tiquinho Soares in a 4–0 Copa Sudamericana home routing of Universidad César Vallejo. Seven days after that, he scored his first goal for the club, netting the second in a 2–0 win over Ypiranga-RS also at the Estádio Olímpico Nilton Santos, for the year's Copa do Brasil.[1][4]
Janderson made his Série A debut on 11 May 2023, again replacing Tiquinho in a 3–0 home win over Corinthians.
